WICHITA'S MANUFACTURES MULTI
PLYING.

The surest measure of the importance of
any city's manufacturing interests is the
commercial status of such city. The surest
measure of any clty's commercial possibili
ties are her facilities for reaching markets
and patrons-the same facilities as to
patrons and markets-upon which depend
commercial life and which never fail to
develop and maintain manufacturing
interests. A manufacturer must not only
reach customers, but he must be located in
a market. There are few exceptions to
this rule, and the exceptions are not always
a very marked success. A great or cheap
power or an abundance of raw material
have developed special manufacturing
interests outside of commercial surround
ings, but such communities are seldom so
prosperous as where the commercial and
manufacturing interest are found united
and interdependent on the same customers
and same traffic lines
AS is well known, the EAGLE has never
encouraged the bonusing of manufacturing
enterprises. This paper has held to the
idea of the foregoing paragraph. If Wich-
tia was natural trade center, we have
held that manufacturing interests must
inevitable follow her commercial develop
ment and for precisely the same reason.
We nave further held that while bonused
manufact urers were almost certain to fail,
that those starting with and buying on to
commercial life would grow and expand
just as sure as the city grew and expanded.
Now, the future of Wichita as a com
mercial city and mart of great Importance
being conceded by everybody, is the other
proposition holding good? Is Wichita
getting any manufacturing interests? This
question will not be asked by anybody
who has been around and through the city
Of late. But we answer, yes. Wicbita's
N anufacturing interests are multiplying in
number and increasing in importance. The
report of the board of trade when made,
Will simply astonish many people who
think they know all that is going on in
Wichita. Hundreds of families which in
clude several thousand men, women and
children in Wichita, today are dependent
upon the manufacturing interests already
developed.

Attorney. General Bradford appears to
have been most favorably impressed with
Wichita Republican.
Who is Attorney General Bradford? In
what particular has he ever impressed his
personality upon the state? What great
enterprise or what far reaching informa-
ton is his train the fountain, that his
opinions should be valued or quoted? Is
he the young country attorney who, when
politely reminded by Governor st. John
that he was failing to do his duty as a
sworn officer by closing up the saloons at
his own home, replied in an open, insulting
and bumptious letter through the Com
monwealth and which letter was written
by Hon. Joseph Waters? We only ask
for information in general way, not that

THE PRESIDENT AND THE G. Ar.

The position taken by the Grand Army
of the Republic in regard to a recognition
of the President at their forthcoming reun-
ion at ST. Louis is causing some comment
by both Democratic and Republican news
papers, Quite number of people and
papers, we are led to believe censure or ap-
prove the G.. A. r. without once stopping
to enquire their reasons for not wanting TO
take part in demonstration in honor of
MIR. Cleveland Some assign the reason
that the presidents action in vetoing num-
erous pension bills furnishes the reason for
the action of the G. A. r. Because the
president was envited to come to st. Louis
during the time Of the reunion by the poll
ticians without consulticg the Grand
Army, was taken by that order
as an attempt to compel a
recognition of Mr.. Cleveland, or as an at
tempt to use them in an electioneering
scheme to further Mr.. Cleyeland's candi-
dacy for second term. This is the reason
we think for their action. To honor Mr.
Cleveland as president and commander of
the army and navy of the United States is
quite different thing from taking part in
a demonstration gotten up to aid MIR.
Cleveland to secure second term by the
Democratic party. We do not believe the
Grand Army would object to honor him in
the former instance, but in the latter they
undoubtedly should and would. A great
IA ajority of the individual members of that
organization are undoubtedly Republicans;
yet the Grand Army of the
Republic is essentially a bipartisan
organization. And the men who fought
together to preserve this government of the
people among the nations of earth, do not
want their organization rent by political
dissentions They meet in their Grand
Army camps as patriots and not as parti-
sans. If Mr.. Cleveland has incurred their
dis pleasure, it is because his action toward
them has been ungenerous, and not because
of his political opinions. The old soldiers
as body are proud of their achievements
They are jealous of their honor, and will
resist every attempt to belittle the cause
for which they fought. Let the old patriots
meet and grasp their comrads by the hand
and talk over the string scenes of the six
ties, and if polititions can not meet with
them on these grounds, let them remain

THE CAPITALS CLASH.

The EAGLE lacks room this morning to
refer at any satisfactory length to the To-
peka Capitals Misrepresentation of facts
touching the putting of this city under
martial law, but we will do so in all good

like that of Mr.. Bradford and Governor
Martin. No doubt the 1913 signers have

Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR
LONDON, Sept. 2.-The general opinion is that the
proclamation of the Ennis meeting is q great
blunder on the part Of the government Unpro-
tected by precedent OF any kind they have decided
to proclaim political meeting OF q particularly
harmless character, and dealing mainly with
Gladstone's home-rule proposals. Neither Lords
Spencer nor Cowper ever proclaimed a meeting
under ordinary law. The proclamation, there
fore, unless intended to be new and dangerous
precedent for the suppression OF public meetings,
gives the government no special power, and
exposes them to damaging consequences.
